Batch review performed on 29 february 2024 lot 2302384: (b)(4) items manufactured and released on 15-jun-2023.Expiration date: 2028-05-29.No anomalies found related to the problem.To date, (b)(4) items of the same lot have been sold with no similar reported event during the period of review.Clinical evaluation performed by medical affairs director: subsidence of the tibial component in a cemented medial uka.Date of primary surgery unspecified.Presumably the adverse event took place shortly after index operation.Apparently, the bone coverage was insufficient to offer adequate primary stability.This may be due to difficulties in size selection or placement of the component, but of course other patient-specific factors, as well as postoperative protocol, may have influenced, although the bone quality appears radiographically to be rather good.The definitive cause for subsidence cannot be identified with the information at hand.
